About Carmen Ash Photography

My name is Carmen Ash Coblentz, I am the President/Owner and head photographer with Carmen Ash Photography. Photography is not only my profession of 12 years, but it’s my life and my passion. I see it as an art. The colors, the composition, the figures, the emotion, all the elements that create an amazing image. These are the pieces that come together to tell a story. The story of a father giving his daughters hand in marriage, the look in a groom's eyes when he sees his bride for the first time. It’s those expressions that people give to each when they’re in love. It’s that look that I get from a child who is not sure they want to trust me yet, or the people across the room who have just realized that I’m taking their picture. It’s these little things that remind me that I love my job!

We have a studio in Charleston, SC and are by appointment only.
I hope you enjoy and I look forward to hearing from you!

Loved working with Carmen Ash photography. Carmen was very responsive and professional. Jen and Saul were our photographers and they both made photos easy and fun - both very professional as well. I can’t wait to see our pictures!

Carmen and Caleb did an incredible job capturing our wedding day. We knew we were in good hands after our engagement shoot, but Carmen's pictures exceeded our expectations! She is such a calming presence to have around on the big day, helpful handling family and friends very professionally. She kept us on time without feeling rushed, as well. She has such artistic vision, knowing just what to capture. When we look at our photos, we feel like we are reliving the day because she caught every emotion, from start to finish. Don't bother looking elsewhere-- book Carmen!

How do you even begin summing up Carmen and Caleb? They're quite simply, the BEST. Their photography is stunning, but beyond that, they're two of the most genuine, joyful people you'll ever meet. My husband and I are both writers who love collaborating, and we love seeing another creative couple who absolutely loves working together. From the very first meeting to our current process of designing an album, we can't speak highly enough of these two. They captured our event from start to finish, and were chock full of ideas about different venue spots and poses to try. As someone who doesn't always love formal shots, I have to say they are now some of my all-time favorite photos. All in all, from the posed to the candids, my husband and I are genuinely thrilled at the prospect of looking back on these moments for the rest of our lives.

Carmen and her team at Carmen Ash Photography have always been one of our preferred wedding photographers. They are easy to work, easy to get along with, professional, and capture wedding days beautifully. Highly recommend.
